Agenda

Page 5: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

Why is VIPS needed?

Innovative delivery approaches will be

needed to help achieve the Alliance coverage

and equity targets

The next decade will likely need to shift to sub-national use of

differentiated products

Many innovation initiatives across the Alliance, but strategy and effort not fully

aligned or coordinated

Page 6: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

VIPS background and goal

2016 – 2020: Innovation as one

of the Alliance priorities for

shaping markets

VIPS

The Alliance aims to pursue a common agenda of driving vaccine product innovation

to better meet country needs and support Alliance

goals

Prioritise innovations in vaccine delivery attributes to provide greater clarity to

manufacturers and immunisation partners to make investment decisions

Page 7: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

VIPS is a close Alliance-wide collaboration effort

Page 8: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

VIPS will be delivered through two prioritisation phases by end Q1 2020

We are here

1 Purpose is to prioritise innovations “themselves”, “as platforms”, however it will be signaled for which individual vaccines or types of vaccines the innovation is seen to be most valuable.

VIPS methodology relies on a thorough evaluation process, centered on country needs

VIPS advised by a Steering

Committee of 17 independent experts, 9 are

members of WHO vaccine advisory

committees (PDVAC and IPAC)

Country consultations ensure that country needs drive the prioritisation

An analytical evaluation framework allows a transparent

and balanced assessment of

innovation benefits

About Freeze damage resistant liquid formulations

• For many vaccines, when frozen the antigen-adjuvant particles agglomerate and sediment - resulting in the irreversible loss of potency.

• Developing novel freeze-stable formulations using different excipients (stabilising agents) could prevent agglomeration and stabilise the potency of vaccines.

• The addition of excipients has been demonstrated to reduce the freeze-sensitivity of hepatitis B vaccine and other vaccines containing aluminum-salt adjuvants including diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTP); and pentavalent (hepatitis B, DTP, Haemophilusinfluenza type b) vaccines.

Freeze damage resistant liquid formulations: Rationale for prioritisation

Safeguards vaccine potency and prevents vaccine wastage.Prioritisation could raise the visibility of the technology to vaccine manufacturers

currently developing liquid vaccines with aluminum adjuvants.

Health Impact• Improve freeze resistance of liquid formulations

• Safeguard the potency of the vaccine if accidentally exposed to freezing temperatures and help to prevent vaccine wastage

Potential breadth of innovation use

• Broad applicability to all liquid vaccines containing aluminum-salt adjuvant and potentially to other freeze-sensitive vaccines

Freeze damage resistant liquid formulations have the potential to:

About Heat stable/controlled temperature chain (CTC) qualified liquid formulations

• Liquid vaccine formulations that are sufficiently heat stable to be kept in a CTC.

• CTC use of vaccines allows for single excursion of the vaccine into ambient temperatures not exceeding +40°C for a minimum of 3 days, just prior to administration.

• Heat-stable vaccines differ in the length of time they can be stored in a CTC and the maximum temperature they can endure while remaining stable and potent.

• CTC qualification involves regulatory approval and prequalification by WHO.

Page 34: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

Heat stable/CTC qualified liquid formulations: Rationale for prioritisation

Potential multiple public health benefits and WHO recommended

Health Impact • Improve vaccine effectiveness: less susceptible to heat damage• Reduce likelihood of freeze exposure• Positively impact coverage and equity:

• Easier to use ; alternative delivery scenarios; ease cold chain logistics for health care workers

• Increase acceptability• Reduce stock-outs

Safety impact • Reduced contamination/needlestick risk

Economic costs • Reduce storage and transportation volume and associated costs• Save health care worker time

Potential breadth of innovation use

• Broad applicability to all vaccines that are currently liquid and thermostable

About Combined Vaccine Vial Monitor (VVM) and Threshold Indicators (TI)

• Combined VVM-TIs on primary containers undergo gradual colour change up to a specified peak threshold temperature and rapidly react if exposed at or above the threshold temperature.

• Currently, VVMs and TIs are not integrated:

• VVMs on primary containers and standalone TIs are currently used when vaccines are kept in a controlled temperature chain (CTC)

• TIs purchased and distributed separately from the vaccine and kept at temperatures below their threshold

• VVM response not rapid enough at higher temperatures (e.g. >37°C or 40°C), whereas TI reacts rapidly if exposed at or above a defined threshold temperature.

Reading of integrated VVM-TI

• There are two types of combined VVM-TIs:

• VVM and TI placed together and reviewed separately• TI is integrated into the VVM: looks and is interpreted

identically to the existing VVMs.Note: Innovation pictures are just examples of innovations

Page 36: VIPS Presentation to DCVMN October 2019 v8 23Oct19 · • The Alliance VIPS initiative Marion Menozzi, Gavi • Nine prioritised innovations from the VIPS initial prioritisation phase

Combined VVM and TIs: Rationale for prioritisation

Potential to improve upon the current use of VVMs with separate TI indicators. Potential to facilitate use of vaccines in a CTC.

Health Impact• Positively impact coverage and equity:

• Easier to use• Provide more accurate assessment of the heat exposure status

of a vaccine, particularly when used in the CTC• Reduce TI stock-outs

Economic costs • Save health care worker time

Potential breadth of innovation use

• Broad applicability to all vaccines, even if likely to be most useful for vaccines prequalified for use in a CTC

Coverage and Equity impact

Combined VVM and TIs have the potential to:

Evaluation framework for Phase II (1/2)Criteria Indicators

Primary ranking criteria

Health Impact

• Vaccine efficacy• Vaccine effectiveness• Ability of the innovation to withstand heat exposure1

• Ability of the innovation to withstand freeze exposure1

Coverage and equity

impact

• Number of fully or partially immunised individuals (relative to target pop)• Ease of use2

• Presentation which helps prevent missed opportunities due to reluctance to open MDV without preservative

Safety impact• Number of vaccine product-related adverse events• Likelihood of contamination2

Economic costs(i.e. Commodity,

Delivery and Introduction and recurrent costs)

• Total cost of a vaccine regimen with the innovation, including wastage• Total cost of delivery technology(ies) used for the vaccine regimen,

including wastage • Total cost of safety boxes used for the vaccine regimen, incl wastage• Total cost of storage and transport of commodities (per vaccine regimen)1

• Total cost of the time spent by staff (per vaccine regimen)1

• Total cost of introduction and recurrent costs (not otherwise accounted for)1

1 Same indicators as for Phase I but further assessed under Phase II due to the antigen/vaccine pairing2 This indicator is re-assessed in Phase II only when the comparator for a specific vaccine is a MDV, requiring a new evaluation – The comparator SDV is assessed in Phase I

Evaluation framework for Phase II (2/2)

Criteria Indicators

Secondaryranking criteria1

Technology readiness

• Clinical development pathway complexity • Technology development challenges• Regulatory pathway complexity• Complexity of manufacturing the innovation• Robustness of the innovation pipeline

Commercialfeasibility

• Potential breadth of market size• Existence of partnerships to support development and

commercialisation• Known barriers to global access to the innovation• Stakeholders’ interest

1 These criteria will be evaluated in an absolute manner, not relative to a comparator.

In Phase II, VIPS is engaging with the Delivery Technologies Working Group (DT-WG)

• Platform for industry and the public sector to engage on the presentation, packaging, and delivery aspect of vaccine products.

• Inform industry about LMIC programmatic preferences & operational realities.

• Optimise innovation of immunisation products for public-sector use.

• Sensitize the public sector to industry constraints and economic realities of investing in product development.

• Update broader set of immunisation stakeholders, including industry, on VIPS.

• Obtain feedback on VIPS prioritised innovations from the perspective of technical feasibility, manufacturability, regulatory hurdles.

DT-WG goals and objectives Consultations objectives

A final report will be published by Q3/Q4 2020

1 Purpose is to prioritise innovations “themselves”, “as platforms”, however it will be signaled for which individual vaccines or types of vaccines the innovation is seen to be most valuable.

December 2018 – June 2019

Publication of a final report: • Process and

methodology; • Most valuable

innovations including rationale, recommendations;

• Inform research agenda.

• All assessments will be made public.
